Re: git-coccinelle: adjustments for array.cocci?

Anyway, someone who can reproduce the issue using the latest release
of Coccinelle would be in a better position to file a bug report.
Hello,

I repeated the discussed source code transformation approach together
with the software combination “Coccinelle 1.0.8-00004-g842075f7” (OCaml 4.09).
https://github.com/coccinelle/coccinelle/commits/master

1. Yesterday I checked the source files out for the software “Git”
   according to the commit “The first batch post 2.24 cycle”.
   https://github.com/git/git/commit/d9f6f3b6195a0ca35642561e530798ad1469bd41

2. I restored a previous development status by the following command.

   git show 921d49be86 | patch -p1 -R

   See also:
   https://public-inbox.org/git/53346d52-e096-c651-f70a-ce6ca4d82ff9@web.de/

3. I stored a generated patch based on the currently released SmPL script.
   https://github.com/git/git/blob/177fbab747da4f58cb2a8ce010b3515c86dd67c9/contrib/coccinelle/array.cocci

4. I applied the following patch then.

 type T;

   I suggested in this way to move a bit of SmPL code.
5. I stored another generated patch based on the adjusted SmPL script.

6. I performed a corresponding file comparison.

How do you think about the differences from this test result?
